Grinding Aimlabs but still missing shots in Counter-Strike 2?
You might just be playing the wrong Tasks that don't translate to CS2.
But don't worry, this guide breaks down the best Aimlabs scenarios for every aim skill you actually use in CS2, from timing and micro-adjustments, to flicking and tracking moving targets.

Micros
Micro 2 Sphere CS2 – This task features 2 small static targets in a very small space, providing core micro training, while also serving as an in-playlist warmup inside the routine. Fun, easy to play, and a good isolation exercise for doing small flick motions.
Microshot CS2 – In the next task, players will shoot at 2 targets in a long corridor with readable and predictable strafes. It’s good for learning how to chain micros and kill multiple evasive targets in a row, which is a very common scenario in CS. It teaches microcorrections and also the ability to focus on more than one target on screen without being overwhelmed.
Flicking Technique
Adjustshot CS2 – Kicking off the flicking section, shoot at 2 targets on a wide wall with no variance in target depth. Targets are not static, and they have slight, gentle movement. This scenario is useful to train proper flicking technique, as it requires an initial flick and the microrrection needed due to the small target movements. Adjustshot is a very popular flicking task.
Headshot CS2 – The second flicking task features 4 moving targets in a wide playing area that only move horizontally until they hit the side walls. The task also has target depth, meaning targets can appear closer or farther away. This replicates situations where you catch multiple enemies rotating who are unaware of your presence and need to eliminate them quickly. It’s similar to the previous task in that it emphasizes fighting several targets, but on a much larger scale. It also trains micros, but this task made it into the flicking section on account of the requirement for wide flicks.
Smoothness and Stability
Strafe Track CS2 – This task features a single invincible tracking target that moves horizontally, with slight back and forth movements, mimicking a CS2 player who is constantly strafing. It trains target reading and tension control, especially while tracking the target’s direction changes. Angle Track CS2 – The next task in this section features on-rails movement, where the player moves side to side in a half-circle area while tracking a static target that despawns and respawns every 6 seconds. This is excellent for stability, teaching players to use the full range of motion of their arm to track their target. It also reliably replicates CS2 gameplay as it mimics holding and adjusting along an angle while maintaining proper crosshair placement. Some players debate that Counter-Strike players don’t use their tracking ability much, if you’re utilizing proper crosshair placement and angle control, you are absolutely using your tracking ability as you move.
Game Specific
Strafeshot CS2 – This is a dynamic scenario with 4 targets that appear at different heights. The targets constantly strafe horizontally, stopping frequently. This task replicates the battles players experience in CS2, since erratic movement and “ADAD spamming” is the number one way to avoid getting killed in CS2. This creates the hardest aiming situation in the game, so training it in isolation is critical. This task trains flicking technique, micros, and target reading, all in one.
